'Lighting with Mental Ray'

This is how I normally render objects with no reflections. If you have an object with reflective material you need to do a few more steps. Let's see why (chrome and other materials are in another FDA tutorial). If you create an object made of chrome and you go to make a rendering you will have the result like in the image below

We can have a better result with a few more steps...Let's create two big boxes. like in the image below.
